How To Make pulled pork enchiladas

  • 2
    In a skillet over medium-high heat, add oil. When hot but not smoking, add pork and cook to warm it up, tossing continuously, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and add red kidney beans, corn, and ½ cup mixed cheese; stir to combine.
  • 3
    Fill each tortilla with ½ cup of pork mixture. Roll up by folding the ends and transfer into the prepared dish. Ladle over the remaining enchilada sauce and transfer into the preheated oven; bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for another 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and golden.
